Time to check my progress this week. I almost forgot about this because I have been bad this last week. I was invited to several gatherings with friends and relatives and dine out in an all-you-can-eat restaurant. I admit that I ate a lot this week compared to my first 2 weeks dieting. Hey, I don't want to waste the expensive fees from these restaurants LOL. But, I am proud to say that I only ate one serving and did not came back for more. I took a little of everything :P Hannah ate more than I did LOL

One of my favorite food that I can't live without is ICE CREAM! Since I live in a tropical country, ice cream is my go to snack. Lately, instead of the regular ice cream I buy from the grocery, I substitute it with frozen yogurt. With an addition of my favorite fruits (mango and strawberries), the taste is just perfect! Thank goodness they serve this at those restaurant we went at. That was a yummy dessert.

So here we go...Just a recap, I started at 61kilos last February 7 (134lbs). Last week , Feb 16, I weighed in at 58.5kilos (129lbs). And on Feb 22, I am at 56.5kilos (124lbs). Today, I am at 54.7kilos (120.5lbs). Not bad WOOHOO!!! 6.3kilos in 26 days! I am so happy. Many thanks to 5 Kilos Scrappers Challenge blog for all the advice, information and support. They have motivated and encouraged me to do this task. Check out the bloghere!

I think a couple of rounds at the stadium paid off. Last Friday, we attended this Mini Olympics event organized by Hannah's school. I was able to do several laps at the oval ring which is over 400 meters long. I did not only jog but I run. I used to be a runner back in Highschool and won several medals. My record was around 11seconds for 100m dash. It felt good running again. Actually, dh is inviting me to run at the same stadium every weekend. I think it's a fantastic idea.

Here are some photos of Hannah taken last Friday:

I am the the photographer so as always, I rarely have a photograph of myself. Will ask dh to take a photo of me this weekend so that I can compare my before and after photos.

LG, I am soooo happy for you... you have done an amazing job these last 3 weks, blown the rest of us right out of the water !!! we had no hope of catching you :) well done lady.... enjoy your Prima prize :) have a wonderful weekend my friend xx
